Reed's Christening

We were finally able to christen our little angel tonight. It was a nice, small, family ceremony. Reed was able to wear his original homecoming outfit during his christening, since it was white. :) At least we got to use it! He did great through the ceremony, barely fussing at all. We had an enjoyable dinner following the christening and got in some good visiting time.

God blessed us with a true miracle on March 14, 2010, and we have anxiously awaited the day we could finally christen him and present him before God. We will officially present him to the church family when he is able to go to church after he turns a year old, when we will finish the vows that the church has to take.

Today we are thankful for those who were able to be with us as we christened Reed, those who have been with us through it all, and who will be a vital part of his life as he grows. We love you all! Count your blessings and remember to give thanks for all you are blessed with. That's the most important lesson I've learned through this journey we started on March 14, 2010. You never know when something or someone you love dearly will be taken from you, so cherish the time you have.

Love to all,
